IP Infusion has teamed up with global IT services provider NTT DATA to accelerate the adoption of open networking technologies and solutions.
The pair will bring go-to-market open networking solutions to bring enhanced disaggregation, scalability, and choices to network operators.
For those who came in late, open networking enables network operators to use disaggregated hardware and software components from different vendors rather than relying on proprietary and closed systems from traditional vendors. This allows operators to reduce costs, increase flexibility, and foster network innovation.
This collaboration for expanding broad connectivity was initiated by the Telecom Infra Project (TIP), including TIP solutions for Disaggregated Cell Site Gateways (DCSG) or Cell Site Routers and Cassini for Routed Optical Networking projects. Both NTT DATA and IP Infusion are members of TIP, which is driving development and deployment of open, disaggregated, and standards-based technology solutions to advance global connectivity.
IP Infusion is seen as a pioneer in open networking and flogs a comprehensive portfolio of products and services that support various open networking standards and platforms, such as Open Compute Project (OCP), Telecom Infra Project (TIP), Open Network Install Environment (ONIE), Open Network Linux (ONL), Open Network Operating System (ONOS), OpenDaylight (ODL), OpenSwitch (OPX), and SONiC.
